So I'm getting my car repainted after I get a new quarter panel on, and I have no idea what paint code is or even what kind of blue it is. I've seen a couple others on here with the same color. If anyone has any idea I would greatly appreciate the help!

alright thanks. I wasn't sure if it was a oem color or not, because the jams and everything else is black and I can tell it got repainted by the horrible body filling job and clear coat runs in some spots lol

edit: ^thank you for the chart KiLLeR2001

There aren't too many 240's where I live and there's one that shade of blue and I don't want people thinking I'm him, because he drives like a D-bag lol. I like how the dark blue goes with my wheels too, so I'm just looking to replace the qp(picture) and keep it the same

The only pictures I have on this computer are with a shitty digital camera so every side looks like the dark side lol. It does get a little hot, but up here in North Dakota it's hot maybe 3 or 4 months out of the year lol.

Indeed.

This did NOT require a new thread.
